THE AZTEC FAIR.
The Aztec Fair and Mexican Village
opened at the Washington Light Infantry
Hall last night at 1880, and big crowd
went In, among those IN attendance being Il
number OF Senators and Members with their
wives and other ladies. The exhibition Is
novel, interesting and instructive, and
teaches more In an hour than books can In
weeks. The curlOs are remarkable, hut
more interesting are the living representa-
tives of the A2tecs, busy with the various
industries of their county, aud each booth
and workshop draws about 1t curious
crowd. The peculiar music of Mexico was
another fei ure, and The band kept au

fair will reol en- every morning from 1880 to
1880, from $50 to $50, and at night from

Death of an Old THURMAN.

Captain Thomas G. Moore, who was the
manager of the Rancho del Paso stables a
few years ago, and subsequently filled a
similar position for Theodore Winters, at
Rancho del Rio, died at Crab Orchard, Ken
lucky, last Saturday night, aged 76 years.
Forty years ago he was one of the most
popular steamboat captains on the Father
of Waters" He was nephew of the ia
nous old Billy Forsythe, whose exploits as
commander of the New England and
Bully Fulton" are still legends of a steam
boating era that antedates the apprentice
ship of such pioneers as Captain Tom Lyle,
of California, and Captain John G. Aims
worth, of Oregon. In course of time he be-
came attracted to the turf, and in 1861. when
the Woodlawn Course. ut Louisville was
opened, he made his appearance with two
phenomenal mares-Molly Jackson and
Idlewild. With the former he won the
Gold Vase, four miles out, in 1874 in
gallop on Tuesday. and two days later
broke the record with Idlewild by doing a
mile with ridiculous ease in 1:444, and
held hard at that The following Saturday
saw the greatest three-mile heat race ever
run in America, between Molly Jackson,
Sherrod, Cotton and Betty Ward. Molly
won the first heat in 5:35l, the last two
miles being done in 3:35 and the next
heat fell to Sherrod, a little sorrel pony but
14a hands high, in 5:341, the last tB miles
in 1854 and the sixth mile the race in
1:454 Then came the third heat whose
record is unbeaten to this day. Betty had
been distanced in the previous heat and
Molly now took the third from Sherrod by
a neck in $3.50, the last two miles being
done in 3:3S3, and the ninth mile of the
race in 1:49. Cotton, afterward the sire of
the great Monday, was distanced. and there
is no other three-mile heat race that will
bear like analysis.
The performances of these speedy ani-
mails gave Captain Moore great reputation,
and his stables were for long time at the
top notch of popularity; but bad luck and
injudicious training of his racers, COM
bined, perhaps, with lack of nerve , &C.
casionally, as in the instance of the little
gray Stonewali Jackson, in 1866. reduced
his prestige. In 1875 he came TO California
with Wildidle, and won the Wise plate at
the Bay District course. with lis pounds
up, doing four miles in 7:25 beating Grin
stead and others. OF late years he became
quarrelsome and capGous, and on one oc-
caslon shot, but not fatally. Lewis Clark,
President of the Louisville Jockey Club.
His love of gaming was excessive and it is
estin atei that be lost during the past forty
years fully 100000 at faro. He was re-
markably well informed on all matters per-
tanning to the turf and when he felt ike
talking his long experience rendered his
conversation exceedingly fascinating to all
interested in such matters. Though his
irrascibility interfered with bis popularity,
many residents of Sacramento will recall
him with very kindly feelings.

AMENDMENT NO. 3.
An Address from Boards of Trade to the
Voters of California.


At Conference of representatives of
the various Boards of Trade and towns
and cities of the State of California, held
in Oakland, April It'll, the following ad-
dress was unanimously adopted:
To the People of the State of California
WHEREAS, Certain constitutional amend
ments are to be submitted TO the qualified
voters of this State, on Tuesday April 18th:
Amendments Nos. and 9 relating to the
Judiciary, and No. relating to the franz
ing OF Charters for cities of 10000 inhabi-
tants, and over; and, whereas, the n
Francisco Bar Association in their address,
dated March 30th, have given reasons for
the adoption of said Amendments Nos.
and 2,
Now, therefore, the undersigned, this
day assembled III conference, representing
the mercantile. business and industrial in
terests of the cities and towns of this State,
desire hereby to call your attention also to
the great importance of the adoption of
Amendment No. 8.
Under the present law, cities and towns
are divided into classes; and all cities in
each class are governed by the same char
ter.
1t is very evident that many of our cities
have outgrown their original charters and
in seeking to frame new ones, it is found to
be impossible to Meet the different con-
ditions and requirements present and
prospective, of each individual CITY and
town.
The amendment will enable each CITY
in properly guarded manner to provide
for its own necessities. Fifteen freehold
ers, elected by the people, may draft
charter, which is TO be submitted to a
popular vote if adopted and approved by
TIE Legislature. 1t will then become
the charter of the city. In WORD, it pro-
vides for local self-government. In view
of the foregoing we earnestly urge the
necessity of the active interest and support
of all citizens of the State at the polls next
Tuesday.
The above appeal is Endorsed by Robert
Efey, Mayor and President Board of Trade,
Santa Cruz Eugene L. Gregory, Mayor,
Sacramento; W. B. Moody, President
